Hi . The concern is you have caught it earlier though ra is common disease. Generally it is kashtsadhya i. E. Doesn't go easily but its not very difficult either provided you follow aahar, bihar, aachar (aacharan and not pickle) as advised. It predisposes because of digestion, assimilation problems (which people tend to ignore) - may be because of'mandagni' i. E. Incapability of body to carry out physiological functions associated with digestion. It causes aam to accumulate in the intestines. Aam is not mango here but a kind of mucous which is very significant in ayurveda. This aam resembles- effect wise- gama globulin which when ingested causes various diseases in body one if which is ra. In allopathy pain killers is the only remedy- in one form or the other- and people feel comfort instantly and this goes on. In ayurveda the root cause is corrected which takes little longer periods but there are no instant pain killers. Ideally panchkarma is advised and if people are not able to spend time for that, the medicines having characteristics of deepan, paachan, shodhan are advised having a kind of miniaturised effects of panchkarma. Vastikarm i. E. Kinds of herbal enema are also very important. Please send your esr, uric acid and ra blood reports along with medical history for specific advice. You may see tips by me on ra. Please bear in mind that ignoring ra may usher into more complications later in life including heart.
